This clown is still at it? Scumbag needs to be locked up.

 

Surprised nobody has turned up at his house and kicked his teeth in yet.

Can be arranged you know...

[Gepard]

Wasn't he meant to pay a fine or go to jail? Obviously wasn't enough of a deterrent for this guy.

For fucks sake guys, give the poor bloke a break, everybody will get their stuff, he's just going through a spell of bad luck at the moment, I know for a fact that his mum has died at least three times  .

You know what to do

[Albiscuit]

@L3wisD and those poxy glitter cannons!!

 

   

[L3wisD]

The other option is to print off a photo of his house from Google Street view then take a polaroid photo of it and send it to him with "Scamming bastard - I'm going to burn this shithole down" written on it.

 

That way it looks like you've actually gone to his front door and he'll shit himself.

 

Or not.?

This prick tried to scam me time ago. Got my money back and he tried to give some grand excuse. If i ever go Ireland might go buy some eggs and make some window omelettes... 

[Ryan Ward]

ive jsut been scammed by him this evening was meant to do a swap i sent my gun out and low and be hold he didnt my mate sent him £120 and got nothing in the post

See a lot of things like this in the vape community, might be an idea to make a pinned post of known scammers so buyers can give it a once over before sending any goods or cash down the drain

[djben9]

out of curiosity, does contacting the police etc. get any where with situations like this?

 

or is it just a slap on the wrist  / forgotten about so relies on the Airsoft community to keep it active

From experience in the vape industry the police don't really seem to do much even when it's been proven one particular character has had at least a few grands worth of gear from various sources so it's up to the community to keep a look out I'm afraid

[Druid799]

Unfortunately Valentine is right, recently a friend had some very rare gear scammed of him , went to the police with email print outs , screen grabs , the guys real name , address , phone number the lot , there response ? F**k all was there response ! BUT when he said fine I’ll go and sort it my self , which we did luckily with no drama (the guy absolutely shit him self when we very politely AND non aggressively introduced our selves on his door step) they turned around and basically threatened him with arrest if anything went wrong ! Now I know the police are absolutely swamped but there attitude to this was quite frankly unf**king believable , and they wonder why so many in the public are turning against them ?

Moral of the story: don’t deal with pikeys and if you do, don’t expect the police to do shit. 

[EvilMonkee]

Shamefully (as an ex civvy copper) I can relate to the Police attitude.  Ultimately, the police very often view this kind of fraud as coming under 'caveat emptor' and therefore a civil matter.  Now, unless you have lots of documentary evidence you arent going to get very far with a theft claim.

hes got my gun atm and was meant to send a gun for a trade sureley that counts for theft right?

[Tackle]

Copy everything you have, pms, emails etc, & contact the nips (northern Ireland police service), explain the situation & that since sending your rif you've been made aware that Glennie has a fairly recent conviction for similar offences, the most likely charges being obtaining goods by deception, & that he's at it again.

They may be interested, as its likely he has conditions set against him, should he reoffend within a set time frame.

Also, there is a uk cybercrime police unit (sorry dont have the link), as I'm sure your involvement with him is net based, & therefore meets criteria for their involvement, again because of his previous its likely they'll be keen to investigate.

Good luck mate.

Isn’t anything over 1j a firearm over there? Tell the police it’s a firearm. That’ll get the ball rolling ?

[EvilMonkee]

Yeh he will have them kicking his ndoor in in no time...Hmm I have an idea.......

We did , and still zero fucks given by the police , BUT as I said they soon showed interest when my oppo said he’d sort it him self . Positive glee in the plods eyes as he warned him if it did turn nasty he’d get him self arrested ! ?

[Huxley]

Take him to small claims.
